Books like Code by Brendan Reichs
In the fifth book of the Virals series, 14‑year‑old Tory Brennan and her pack of friends discover supernatural abilities while investigating a cold‑case murder. Their new powers guide them to a geocache, the most recent clue left by a shadowy entity known only as the Gamemaster. The Gamemaster turns the gang’s scavenger hunt into a deadly game, presenting complex puzzles, codes, and riddles that grow increasingly perilous. With each treasure found, the Virals—Tory, Shelton, Ben, and Hi—realize that one geocache could be a ticking time bomb threatening innocent lives. Forced to act without relying on law enforcement, the group must use their new powers and teamwork to outwit the Gamemaster, disarm the traps, and protect those around them before it’s too late.
